Shining Force 2 Any% in

[@aceshighdueceslow]

was checking in to see what's been going on with this game since the last speedrun I watched in...2017? Maybe? It was the RPG Limit Break feature from around then. I see that a LOT has been done with discovering movements glitches and such since then, way cool! congrats on the run!

Great game. Great run. Sub 4 is crazy

[@Winslinator]

Wow the skips and RNG manips have gotten so sophisticated. congrats on first sub 4!

[@MattArseno]

yeah! I was just thinking that! Impressive stuff!

[@orlof507]

[@bearlotk7608]

[@CloudCarry]

Congrats!

[@gaaradesertsand]

Thanks Cloud! We finally did it!

Wow, I can't quite wrap my brain around all the tricks you used, and I can't find any explanation of them. The big ones I saw were 1) opening and closing the combat menu to get extra movement, 2) suspending and reloading to RNG manipulate a double attack every time, and 3) egressing from the hidden battle to warp to northern Paramecia. Is there somewhat to find more info about these exploits?

[@gaaradesertsand]

Number 3 doesn't work that way. I had just saved there 1 hour before by going out of bounds in the cave battle and since it was the last save I did in a town, Egress returned me to that spot. As for number 1, Degree Z, Cloud Carry and NoWorries tskisoccer all have a few videos on that (some with explanations or button press mapping) but there isn't one vid that covers everything as a tutorial. For number 2 there is a video by Cloud Carry called: double attack manipulation guide SF2 that covers some aspects of the RNG manipulation. If you are still interested to learn more about them, let me know and I will try to explain them to you directly on discord cause it's hard to do so on the comment section here

@@gaaradesertsand awesome, thank you for all the info! I was going crazy trying to Google for the info and not being able to find it. Congratulations on a decisive WR!

3:52 how did you get that menu to appear

[@gaaradesertsand]

@@adventureoflinkmk2 press B when you can move your character and then press A on any spot on the map

@@gaaradesertsand thank you

Suspending the game to manipulate RNG is so lame. As is exploiting out of bounds bugs.
